Will Disney worlds fifth park come first or universals?

[NostalgiaExtreme7498]

I'm curious as to whether of Walt Disney world will decide to break ground on its new fifth theme park soon I hear from scream cape it will be located across flamingo crossings-heard theirs a bigggg chunk of land over their. On the other hand universal Orlando I hear doesn't have much land to expand for a third theme park right now; I actually thought their third theme park would be volcano bay water park? I'm a bit confused by this or the third park for UO is a totally different story altogether???

Disney isn't building another park in Florida any time soon. DHS and DAK are half-day parks at best and they're struggling to revitalize them enough as it is.

WDW's fifth theme park is at least 2 decades away, Universal's third gate is probably not even a decade away.

Oh boy here we go

The biggest issue is Disney needs to fix the current parks they have before they work on a fifth park

DAK is actually in really good shape. DHS is the park that's most likely to just completely crumble from a guest visitation stand point if Disney doesn't take action soon.

Isn't going to happen. Screamscape is so full of junk rumors and inaccurate "news".

You know, as dillusional and out of touch as Disney's manage seems to be, it wouldn't shock me if they did build a 5th gate with the assumptions that it was a response to what Universal was doing

That would only take away attendance from the 3 secondary parks like Frozen Fun did last year. Once a Universal park beats Epcot in attendance (which will be soon), I think Disney finally stops sleeping and builds at a faster pace. Too much neglect to the secondary parks has ruined any chance of a 5th gate in the near future.

You and I both know that

I'll throw this out here, what's 'beat attendance'? TEA numbers? Internal numbers? How many people go there to spend a day vs going there for festivals? It's such a meaningless statistic, like how many megapixels are in a digital camera.

Haha it's funny cause you think Disney is gonna expand ound:

They need to give their current parks a lot of love first. I guess I'm in the minority group who thinks it's Epcot who needs the most help.

We got an official "5th Park" thread for this. Gonna lock it.
